Waiting

Gorgeous day today.  The captains and crews of the 2 boats made a decision last night to delay our departure due to offshore wind direction, mainly.  We will be traveling to Galveston Yacht Basin on Monday, wait out a front on Tuesday, and leave on our adventure Wednesday morning.  I think. 

In the meantime, there is still plenty to do.  Filling water tanks, preparing the dinghy for the davits, to name a couple.  I know I am ready to move on!

Let's go!

As I sit here in my salon, with the sun shining (finally!), food prepared and stowed, and anxiously awaiting our departure tomorrow, I think "what else can happen?"  We have no hot water.  It may be as simple as a breaker, but we are supposed to leave for crying out loud!   The north wind has blown all the water out of the marina and if it doesn't come back soon, we won't be going anywhere tomorrow.  The water, of course, has been high all week. 

Oh, of course, we sold our car yesterday, too, so we are without wheels. What is it they say?  Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.   Guess we will sit back, relax and see what happens.

Cheers!
